getting the access modifier of methods Method methods = obj.getDeclaredMethods() using object of Class to get all the declared methods of Bird creating an object of Class by using getClass() In this example, we are trying to get all the information about the method present in the “Bird” class. To get the information about different methods present in the class, we can use the Method Class that provides various methods. b.getParameterCount() : It is used to return the number of parameters passed in each constructor.b.getModifiers() : It is used to return the access modifier of the constructor.b.getName() : It returns the name of the constructor.

To fetch the information about the constructor we are using object ‘b’. In the above example the statement : Constructor constructors = obj.getDeclaredConstructors() we can access all the constructor in the class Bird and assign them in an array of constructors of Constructor type. ( "Parameters : " + b.getParameterCount() ) getting the number of parameters in constructors getting the access modifier of constructors ( "Constructor Name : " + b.getName() ) defining private constructor with a single parameterĬonstructor constructors = obj.getDeclaredConstructors() defining public constructor without parameter In this example, there are two constructors, each having the class name “Bird”. In Java, we can inspect various constructors using different methods provided by the Constructor class. Field Class : It is used to give information about fields in the class.Method Class : It is used to give information about methods in the class.Constructor Class It is used to give information about constructors in the class.This can be done by using the package which provides classes that can be used for manipulating the class members. In java, we can inspect the constructors of an object’s class, methods and fields by using java reflection. Reflecting Constructors, Methods and Fields obj.getSuperclass() : This method is used to return the superclass of the class.obj.getModifiers() : This method is used to return the access modifier of the class.obj.getName() : This method is used to return the name of the class.With the help of the object, the different methods of “Class” can be called. In this statement we are trying to create an object “obj” of “Class” using the method “getClass()”. In the above example, the statement : Class obj = a1.getClass() ( "Superclass : " + superClass.getName() )
#Java reflection method mod#
String mod = Modifier.toString ( modifier ) converting the access modifier into the string put this class in different Cat.java file In this, we are trying to inspect the class “Cat”. In this example, there is a superclass “Animal” and a subclass “Cat”. This method is also useful for primitive data types. class extension : In java, if the type is available but there is no instance then we can obtain the Class by appending “.class” to the name of the type. The getClass() method is used if you know the tyoe and it can be also used with primitive types.

Reflection can be used to get the information about : With the help of reflection we can invoke methods at runtime regardless of the access specifier used in them.
